These gullies were very "birdable" - we could refind just about everything and the birds stayed below eyelevel, although hard to see in the dense growth. These weedy gullies have probably never been looked at before and many good birds have undoubtedly been missed. These gullies are potential habitat for field and deciduous undergrowth birds which are unlikely to be found in the cypresses. We had just finished the row of trees at Nunes when I heard a Spizella fly over out towards the west and into the gully. We never found the Spizella but while down in

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Journal Pt. Reyes [cont] June 14 the arroyo, we heard an "eastern" warbler song up in one of these gullies and we tracked it down to an imm.♂ Am. Redstart. Then all hell broke [cont] loose as we then began to find birds: Bay-breasted, Tennessee, Black-and-white, Magnolia, another Tennessee, Rose-breasted Grosbeak, and Red-eyed Vireo!- all within 100 yds. of each other. After we left, we stopped at an overlook above Nunes to see if we could see any more poison-hemlock canyons. Back in the same arroyo, but closer to the ocean were 2 more clumps, to which we returned after lunch. The first new gully had Chestnut-sided Warbler, Red-eyed Vireo, ♀ Rose-breasted Grosbeak, and ♀ Am. Redstart; The next gully (closest to the ocean) had only a ♂ Rose-breasted Grosbeak but we may have overlooked lots of birds there because(1) it was the tallest and densest clump (2) it was 4 PM and bird activity, especially singing by the vagrants, had stopped, (3) we were very tired.

N. of Vidal Junction. The wash is 50+ yds wide and the dominant vegetation is large Palo Verde with some Acacia greggii and Dalea spinosa. Seemed to have a very high density of birds, small mammals, and lizards. One of the best washes I've seen in California in terms of height of vegetation. We came here in search of the Pyrrhuloxias found ~ 2 wks ago by BLM personnel

Starting down from B at 1215, we reached camp at 1500 going slowly. Many of the bare areas were the result of fire, and there does not appear to be any regeneration of trees - no seedlings seen. The remaining piyon forest is fairly tall. There are scattered junipers. No oaks. Carres very common. Also a tall yucca, perhaps a Nolina is scattered on the slopes - those at summit were still in flower. The brush in the gullies looks like a Ribes - looks like the same stuff that's on Clark Mt. The firs looked like they should have good populations of montane birds. We had 4 Hepatic Tanagers, 4 \u267b Dusky Flycatchers, and 4 W.

The powerline road near Ft. Piute was completely washed out by Piute Wash. Ft. Piute itself looked like a river bed full of rocks and gravel. All the undergrowth was removed - cattails, Baccharis and small willows all gone - only the larger shrubs and trees remained and even some of those were toppled. The clearing was so extensive that areas which were at one time near impenetrable undergrowth were now completely open and easy walking. The cotton woods were not harmed.

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Leach's Storm Petrel Oceanodroma leucorhoa Nov. 6 Monterey area, Monterey Co., Calif: I seen from shore at Coast Guard Pier during strong NW winds and rough seas. It was watched for 2-3 minutes 400 yds offshore as it worked its way slowly against the wind. All blackish except for white rump (no white on sides-flanks-under tail coverts) with darker center stripe, forked tail, long wings, deep wingbeats.

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Galapagos Storm Petrel Oceanodroma tethys Oct. 1 Monterey Bay boat trip, Monterey Co., Calif.: I with petrel rafts off Moss Landing which was spotted by Guy McCastlie and Rich Stallcup and eventually seen by almost everyone on our boat. What was undoubtedly the same bird had been seen by Arnold Small here the week before and identified tentatively as Galapagos from unsatisfactory looks, and much to Arnold's credit, identified correctly. I saw the bird on 2 separate occasions within a 10 minute period and watched the bird in flight for probably a total of 15-20 seconds from 75-200 ft. in good light and also saw the bird swimming on the water with Ashy Storm Petrels for 1-2 minutes, from as close as 75 ft. In the previous 1/2 hours, I had also seen 2 Wilson's Storm Petrels several times, and so a fresh mental comparison was possible, although the two species were never compared directly. The bird was conspicuously smaller than the Ashy Storm-Petrels with which it associated. Not only was this noticed in flight but while the birds were swimming together on the water. In my opinion, it was easier to see that the Galapagos was smaller- than the Ashys than that Ashys were smaller than Blackls when sitting on the water. I would say that the bird was almost as small as a Least Storm Petrel. In flight both the wingspan and total body length was noticeably less than Ashy's. The most striking feature was the conspicuous white rump and tail. The while extending from the upper edge of the rump nearly to the tip of the tail, There was a narrow band of black at the tip of the tail and some black along the lateral

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Galapagos Storm Petrel Oceanodroma tethys Monterey Bay boat trip [cont] Oct.1 edges of the tail above the tip, but basically the [cont] bird was all white posterior to the rump. I drew this sketch of the < tail immediately after our last observation. The shape of the white was a long rectangle with rounded distal corners. Bothe the leading and trailing edges of this rectangle were cut straight across. The shape of the tail itself was also rectangular - no notch was apparent in the tail. The remainder of the bird was a uniform very dark brownish-gray. No white was noted in secondaries and no white was visible on the flanks when swimming. Flight: the wingbeats were shallow and fluttery like Ashy or Wilson's, but wingbeat was more rapid. Since the bird was only flying short distances at a time and since the stiff afternoon winds were blowing, this may be very different from foraging flight characteristics Of the all dark storm petrels recorded in the N. Pacific, only 4 spp have white rumps - Leach's, Harcourt's, Wilson's, and Galapages. This bird was obviously not a Leach's or Harcourt's - both have the white restricted to the rump itself (does not extend to tail) and are larger than

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Galapagos Storm Petrel Oceanodroma tethys Ashys. The Wilsons Storm Petrel can be eliminated by the following characteristics: (1) body length and wingspan very similar to Ashy (not obviously smaller); (2) although white is more extensive than on Leach's or Harcourt's, the tail is still all black, and so there is a significant area of black posterior to the white - as much black as there is white; (3) secondaries are conspicuously edged white - this was seen today on our Wilson's (lacking in Galapagos); (4) black of lower back protrudes into white of rump in an oval pattern (cut straight across in Galapagos); (5) long legs of Wilson's protrude beyond tail and are frequently used to patter water (this behavior was noted today once on a Wilson's but not on the Galapagos); (6) today the Wilson's all looked very black and white, blacker than either Ashy or Black - the Galapagos looked sootier or grayer - it didn't give that startling black and white contrast shown by Wilson's; also the white of the tail did not appear as bright and clean. (7) Wilson's tail appears broader with rounded corners in the field (straight-sided rectangle in Galapagos). Illustrations of Galapagos Storm Petrel accentuate the wedge shape of the rump, white patch, but as can be seen from museum specimens (see my report to CFO Rarities Comm), the shape is variable, depending on the arrangement of the uppertail coverts [the white is all on lengthened uppertail coverts, not the tail itself]. This bird definitely had a straight rather than pointed posterior border of the white patch.

Remsen, J.N. 1977 American Anhinga Anhinga anhings Apr.1 Sweetwater Reservoir, San Diego Co., Calif.: 1? seen in low flooded willows at the extreme east end of the reservoir where it had been found in early Feb. for the first documented Californian record. The bird spent the entire time perched at the water's edge and we were able to study it for 20+ minutes - pale buffy brown throat and breast sharply demarcated from blackish belly - neck, back and wings mostly blackish with pale areas on upper wing coverts - extremely thin neck and bill - long graduated tail Size of Double-crested Cormorant but more slender. The very thin neck and thin, pointed (not hooked) bill eliminates young cormorants, as well as the long, broad tail, pale areas in wing coverts, and very sharp border between breast and belly color.

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Tufted Duck Aythya fuligula Oct. 29 Lake Merritt, Oakland, Alameda Co., Calif: 2 at Embarcadero end of the lake (found here yesterday). One appeared to be a full adult male - body plumage all glossy black except for whitish sides. The sides were lightly mottled with brown, but there was no indication of a bright white crescent bordering chest contrasting with grayer sides as in Ring-necked Duck; tht white on the sides was a clean white, not gray. A conspicuous tuft of feathers stood out on the back of the head, visible even when head tucked while sleeping. The iris was a conspicuous orange-yellow. The second bird seemed to be an immature male - body plumage all dark brown, darker blackish-brown on head. The sides were brownish mottled with white - the impression was that the sides were on their way to becoming white. This bird also had a tuft on the back of the head but it was not as conspicuous as on the other bird. The iris was bright yellowish. The bill nail was conspicuous and broad, covering the entire leading edge of the bill. Nov. 9 Lake Merritt: 2 (both birds still present)

Oct 25 The following are some notes from a conversation I had with someone about their dog, which they call "Buster". They said that Buster is very friendly and likes to play with other dogs. He also enjoys going for walks in the park. One thing they mentioned was how much Buster loves to eat. They said he can always be found eating something or another. Another note was about how smart Buster is. They said he knows many commands and tricks, such as sit, stay, come, roll over, etc. They also talked about how well-behaved Buster is when out in public places like parks or pet stores. He never barks excessively nor does he run around uncontrollably. Finally, they mentioned that despite being so good-natured and obedient towards humans, sometimes it seems like Buster has his own mind set on things unrelated to anything we might expect from him.

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Black Rail Laterallus jamaicensis Dec.10 Benicia State Park, Solano Co., Calif: I flushed by line of birders going through the marsh opposite the parking lot at high tide (+6.9); it was then surrounded by a small circle and one person began to stomp down vegetation within the circle. It was not seen - but had been stomped on and apparently squashed into submerged vegetation out no one realized what had happened - assumed the bird had somehow slipped through the circle. Jeri Langham and I stayed in the area and ~ 5 minutes later Jeri spotted the upper half of the bird struggling through the vegetation to get above water. The bird was picked up, placed on a board, where it died ~ 45 minutes later - apparently had been squashed and had internal injuries.

We watched the bird for nearly an hour, during which it fed along the edges of pools on the mudflats, foraging slowly and deliberately in contrast to the more rapid movements of Snowys and a Semipalmated Plover. forehead white bill black, thick, stout gony's? or optical illusion dark line between eye and bill tarsi dull pink [tarsi seemed proportionally longer than in Semipalmated Plover] brown outer gray-brown area behind eye gray-brown back and wings brown, about same color as Semipalmated Plover pale areas in primaries - molt or wear [details of tail not noted - not flushed] dark brown breastband, narrowest in middle of breast and broadening at sides of breast On the basis of back color alone, Piping and Snowy Plover can be eliminated - much too dark - about same darkness as Semipalmated Plover. The bill was an order of magnitude too large for Semipalmated Plover giving the bird an entirely different profile and gestalt - whereas the Semipalmated looks very round-headed and stumpy-billed, this bird looked long-headed and long-billed. In addition, the overall body size was noticeably larger than that of the nearby Semipalmated.

Remsen, J.V 1977 Sharp-tailed Sandpiper Calidris acuminata Oct. 16 Castroville, Monterey Co., Calif.: 1 at a grassy pond 1 mile N of Hwy 156 on Castroville Bld where found yesterday afternoon by L.C. Binford and J. Parmeter. Size and shape of Pectoral (short bill, small head on chunky body); crown rusty-red contrasting strongly with a very broad, white eyestripe; cheeks and throat also white, contrasting with buffy neck and chest; a few streaks on sides of breast but basically lacked streaks on breast; belly white; back rich brown with buffy feather edgings, two converging whitish stripes parallel to body axis, and orange-buff edgings in primaries; wading too deep to note leg color. We had a brief look at - 0720 in the fog before the boat trip and then watched it again from 1630-1715. During the PM observation we approached it to within 100 ft. and studied it for 10 minutes through telescopes! We still were in perfect afternoon sunlight not close enough to see whether or not there was a narrow neck band of fine streaks characteristic of this plumage, the most outstanding features were the rusty-red cap contrasting with the very white eyebrow, cheek, and throat. The bird spent most of its time feeding around the grassy-weedy edges of the pond, largely within the inundated vegetation. It did not associate with other species, and there were no Pectoral Sandpipers present.

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Buff-breasted Sandpiper Tryngites subrufiollis Sept. 6 Point Reyes, Marin Co., Calif: 1 along Drakes Beach Rd. where it had been seen late yesterday afternoon. We arrived at 0715 while the fog was still dense and visibility limited to about 50ft. We didn't find the bird until ~ 0930 when the fog began to lift. We then watched it nearly continuously for the next hour or so, but the bird was extremely wary and would not allow approach closer than 100+ ft. It spent most of its time with 3 killdeer, but split off from these during the last 15 minutes of observation. The overall shape of the bird was very distinctive - long neck and small head plus very tapering, pointed posterior and long legs. It walked rather rapidly and erratically - not as deliberate and unidirectional as plovers. It was noticeably smaller than the accompanying killdeer but much small larger than a p.eep - perhaps Pectoral size but with long legs. (crown slightly dull) The head, neck, and chest were a pale buffy-tawny - very conspicuous; the back and wings were a buffy brown, darker than the head and chest - we never got close enough to see the details of the back feathering but it appeared scaly. The belly and undertail coverts were whitish - not buffy as shown (incorrectly) by field guides. The legs were bright yellow and long for the body size. The underwings were white in flight but not as gleaming white as I had remembered Alaska birds; nor was the dark area near the bend of the wing as conspicuous. The bill was rather short and blunt, but we couldn't get close enough to see the feathering extending along the sides of the lower mandible which give the

The bird was strikingly white, but not immaculate - there were tinges of buffy here and there throughout the whole body, especially the upper and undertail coverts which were conspicuously barred with buffy. The bill was pale with a contrasting black tip. The bird bigger-chested, was obviously larger, and heavier than the accompanying Western Gulls - wingbeat seemed stiffer and wings broader. It was seen from as close as 50 ft.

Those who had seen it flying said there was a sharp black band on the tail and no white in wingtips - indicating immature. Also, although the back was smooth gray, the wing coverts were mottled with brown. No white could be seen in wingtips while sitting. The bill looked short, slim and stumpy - not long and slender like Laughing Gull.

Calif.: pair in white fir patch - Nest with 4 eggs in a white fir sapling about 4' off the ground. First breeding record for the NY mountains. Two other birds were heard singing in pinyon-live oak away from white firs @700-7000'. June 21 Kingston Range, San Bernardino Co. Calif.: 4 singing birds in canyons A and B @600-@800 ft. in pure pinyon. These birds were > 1 mile from the white firs - this species certainly does not need white firs

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Western Wood Pewee Contopus sordidulus June 20 East Mojave Desert San Bernardino Co. Calif.: 3 birds singing at different points above Keystone Cyn 6600-7000 ft. - one very near white firs June 21 Kingston Range San Bernardino Co. Calif.: 4 birds singing at different points in canyons A and B plus one bird assumed to be a ♀ seen building and shaping a nest at about 6700 ft. in a large dead pinyon. The nest was about 8' off the ground on a branch which curved abruptly towards the ground May 23 Furnace Creek Ranch, Inyo Co., Calif.: 175♂ counted on golf course - amazing concentration, undoubtedly due to the bad weather grounding all migrants.

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Coues' Flycatcher Contopus pertinax Dec.26 Parker Dam, San Bernardino Co., Calif.: 1 in GOVT residences at Parker Dam where found a few days ago. Size and shape of Olive-sided Flycatcher but underparts a nearly uniform brownish - throat paler and center of belly paler (buffy-brown - says Phoebe-like) but rest of underpart uniform brown without the vested appearance of Olive-sided. Lower mandible bright orange-yellow; two obscure whitish wingbars; forehead extremely steep and head very pointed. Call notes - "chip" or "chip-chip" - sharp, somewhat like Red Crossbill. Sang 3-4 times - "Jose Maria" whistle, or slightly abbreviated version. Watched for 10 minutes from as close as 30 ft. as it sallied from short trees and the handle bars of a tricycle 3-10 ft. above the ground - outstanding views. very steep forehead bill large and long; lower mandible orange pointed head, almost crested [Obviously, the rare Cone-headed Flycatcher - JVR 1977]

Remsen, J.V. 1977 White-eyed Vireo Vireo griseus June 7 Point Reyes, Marin Co., Calif. I ad. seen along the northernmost row of cypress trees at Mendoza Ranch where it had been found earlier by Don Roberson and Bob Richmond. We arrived at 1315 and left at 1715 having seen or glimpsed the bird about 10 times in that four hour period, and only once were we really able to study the bird - not only was the bird extremely secretive and stayed mainly in the center of the canopy, but the strong winds made finding the bird very difficult. We would find it, get a few glimpses, and then it would disappear for 30 minutes. We were sure that it never left that row of trees. It foraged actively in the cypress foliage and only once did I see it within 20 ft of the ground (I thought this was supposed to be an undergrowth bird!). It sang twice. The song was a short series of harsh, spitting notes, the first few of which sounded like the "chi-di-duc" call of the Summer Tanager, and had an Empidonax quality to it. The following plumage description is based mainly on our last view of the bird when it was seen well at about 20' above the ground in the interior of the cypress trees for a minute. The light was not particularly bright but was adequate for color discrimination. Description: [overall size]: very small for a vireo - about the size and shape of a Hutton's Vireo. [bill]: short, stumpy, dark, and hooked; [head]: the forecrown was a conspicuous, glowing yellow-green - I thought this was the most striking thing about the bird. The major portion of the crown seemed to be a grayish-green; I did not see the nape although Joe Morlan and Tim Manolis said it was gray; the face was mainly grayish; the eye was pale except for a black pupil - this pale iris and dark pupil was seen distinctly;

Remsen, J.V. 1977 White-eyed Vireo Vireo griseus Point Reyes [cont] June 7 [cont] there was a narrow, pale eyering which touched the yellow- green forehead - I wouldn't have called it spectacles - it was just that the yellow-green forehead was so extensive that it reached the lores; the chin was grayish-white [underparts]: the throat was grayish-white, contrasting sharply with the very yellow sides of the breast; this yellow extended along the sides to the flanks and nearly met in the breast and belly but it looked like there was white extending all the way down the center of the breast and belly to the undertail coverts. But the yellow may have actually gone all the way across the upper- contrast so sharply den. breast because the throat seemed to be so sharply demc. with the breast. The undertail coverts looked white at our last observation but at one earlier glimpse I thought they were yellow. [upperparts]: I never clearly saw the back in good light - to the it looked olive-brown but everyone else said it was green. [Wings]: brown with 2 conspicuous white wingbars. [Tail]: dull without any notable markings; short.

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Red-eyed Vireo Vireo olivaceus June 14 Pt. Reyes, Marin Co., Calif.: 3 (!!): 1 in myrtle patch just N. of Fish Docks; 2 in 2 different gullies in poison-hemlock just SW of Nunes Ranch. The bird near Fish Docks and one of the Nunes birds looked identical: solid blue-gray crown bordered by wide dark eyebrows eyelines; pale eyelines broad and conspicuous; irises red (seen clearly); cheek dull olive; underparts immaculate white; backs gray, about same color of Warbling Vireo; bills heavy, heavier looking than Warbling Vireo; large body size, noticeably larger than Warbling. We were certain these two birds were different because other birders (Bud Fry et. al) were looking at the bird we had found at Fish Docks while we were seeing the bird at Nunes. The third bird looked different - its back was definitely more greenish and it had more greenish-olive on the cheeks, neck, and sides of breast [head pattern and underparts same]; we did not see the red iris on the third bird. June 23 East Mojave Desert, San Bernardino Co., Calif.: at Fort Piute 1 singing in willow riparian - phrases much richer, sweeter, prolonged, and more variable than Solitary. Seen only for ~ 2 seconds but gray crown bordered (no wingbars) by dark stripes; uniform gray-green upperparts, and uniform grayish-white underparts clearly noted and song totally different from Warbling.

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Philadelphia Vireo Vireo philadelphicus Sept. 28 Point Reyes, Marin Co., Calif.: I in the low dense willows near the cypress trees at Drake's Beach where it had been found yesterday by Don Roberson, Joe Morlan, and Dick Erickson. Joe found the bird again first thing this morning but Linda and I got only brief looks at it before it disappeared. We returned a few hours later and found it in the cypress trees where we watched it intermittently for 5-10 minutes in poor light against the gray sky. But then it flew to the low willows where we had incredible views at eye level in good light from 15-40' away for 5-10 minutes - one of the best studies I've ever had of any vireo. General appearance: a small, chunky vireo (hooked bill clearly seen), smaller and rounder than Warbling Vireo. I was very impressed with how round and chunky the bird was - more like Hutton's Vireo than Warbling Vireo in shape. Bill: seemed shorter and stumper than Warbling Vireo bill. Crown: Even gray Back: a dull green, contrasting with the gray crown and nape. Wings: very dark brownish gray with a faint pale wingbar and (barely visible) pale leading edge (yellowish-white). Tail: same color as wings; outer rectrices appeared pale-edged but it was not clear whether this was a product of the light or true color; tail seemed shorter than that of Warbling Vireo. Eye: indistinct pale superciliary, and an even less distinct

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Philadelphia Vireo Vireo philadelphicus Pt. Reyes [cont] Sept. 28 and breast was solid bright yellow, brightest on center of chest-lower throat; the yellow became paler towards the belly and it appeared that the center of belly, especially between the legs was whitish, not yellow; the flanks were a dull yellow; the undertail coverts were fairly bright yellow. Behavior: foraged slowly and deliberately through undergrowth but did occasionally sally to foliage and hover-gleaned once. Voice: Silent. Legs: appeared bright blue The combination of black loral line, green back contrasting with gray crown, and bright yellow throat and breast eliminates Warbling or Red-eyed Vireo. The thick, hooked bill and bright yellow undertail coverts eliminates Tennessee Warbler (which looked more like this bird in general than does a Warbling Vireo). Oct. 23 East Mojave Desert, San Bernardino Co., Calif: 1 at Kelso in trees around Post Office. Size and shape of Warbling Vireo (but perhaps somewhat chunkier and shorter-billed) but including undertail coverts underparts almost entirely yellow, with only some whitish in center of belly. The yellow was brightest in the center of breast, but not as strikingly so as in the bird seen on Pt. Reyes Sept. 28 - underparts were more evenly yellow. Face similar to Warbling but black between eye and bill.

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Philadelphia Vireo Vireo philadelphicus East Mojave Desert [cont] Oct.23 The back looked grayish in most views except in [cont] direct sunlight when a greenish cast was discernible, contrasting with a grayer crown. But unless the back was seen in sunlight or, it looked grayish. An inspection of Philadelphia-Warbling back color in MVZ recently showed that the back color differences were not as pronounced as field guide pictures show - many Warblings are greenish backed and Philadelphia only averages slightly greener. The bird was spotted by Doug Morton and identified simultaneously by Jon Dunn and myself. We watched the bird off and on for 10 minutes, including a 5 minute study at eye level and below in cottonwood saplings from as close as 10 ft. Also seen by Sid England, Linda Hale, Steve Cardiff, and Gregg Morton. An additional note - the wings were a uniform grayish except for a rather noticeable area on the upper wing coverts which was whitish, forming an indistinct wingbar. Oct.24 East Mojave Desert: 1- Kelso (same bird) - Post Office Oct.30 Monterey area, Monterey Co., Calif : 1 - Carmel Rivermouth ~ 1/2 way between Hwy 1 and green sewer pipe. - seen in this area yesterday by Rich Stallcup. Seen with Warbling Vireo for comparison - like Warbling but all yellow underneath from throat to undertail coverts except for whitish in center of belly; dark loreal line; back looked grayish like Warbling in our light (shade); smaller and shorter-billed than Warbling

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Worm-eating Warbler Helmitheros vermivorus June 23 East Mojave Desert, San Bernardino Co., Calif.: I seen well for about 10 secs. from 30 ft. in dense willow riparian at Ft. Piute. I had finally gotten my glasses on a Red-eyed Vireo which I'd been trying to see as it was singing, when I got a glimpse of a dull warbler with a strong head pattern in the same binocular field. I only saw it for a split second but noted it had a conspicuous pale crown streak. I thought it might be a Worm-eating and after a little pishing, the bird popped out into the open only 30 ft. away in the undergrowth -- The three pale crown streaks and the four parallel dark brown streaks gave the bird an unmistakable, "tiger-stripe" pattern appearance -- one pale crown streak, two pale eyebrows, separated by two dark crown streaks and two dark eyelines. I was looking down on the bird and so got excellent views of this. Also conspicuous was the large, long bill, very thick at the base. The bill looked dark to me [although pictured as pale in Robbins guide]. The upperparts -- back, wings, and tail were a uniform dull greenish-gray (little the Red-eyed Vireo) -- no wingbars or back stripes. The underparts were uniform pale buffy-whitish -- a hard color to describe. It gave a loud "sweep" note 2-3 times -- similar to Yellow Warbler call note. The only similarly plumaged warbler is Swainson's which has a solid crown, as do vaguely similar Red-eyed and Warbling Vireos.

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Golden-winged Warbler Vermivora chrysoptera May 31 Oasis Ranch, Mono Co., Calif: I singing in row of poplars at W. edge of orchard. I was walking along the fence there when I heard three prolonged buzzy notes, the middle lower than the other two, and yelled out "Golden- winged or Blue-winged Warbler!" Everybody ran over quickly and Joe Morlan said the song belonged to Golden-winged. Then I saw it in the poplar and we all watched it for the next 15 minutes. It sang about once every 1-2 minutes. Description: Face pattern very striking and highly distinctive - broad gray-black face mask from lores broadening into auriculars, This mask was sharply bordered all around by white. The chin and throat were also grayish black, separated from the face mask by a broad white malar stream. The forecrown was brilliant golden yellow and the hindcrown was grayish. The rest of the upperparts were grayish except for a very large golden-yellow patch in the wings - very conspicuous. The underparts were whitish. Details of the tail were not noted. The bird foraged rather deliberately in dense foliage in poplars and cottonwoods from 20' to 75' above ground.

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Magnolia Warbler Dendroica magnolia June 14 Pt. Reyes, Marin Co., Calif.: 1 ♂ singing in poison-hemlock gully just SW of Nunes Ranch.. Seen from as close as 5 ft. and watched for 5+ minutes: gray crown, white eyebrow; black face mask; yellow throat; yellow breast and belly with conspicuous columns of black streaks starting at upper breast; black back; entire wing shoulder white; tail dark with very conspicuous white patches; [yellow rump not noted].

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Cape May Warbler Dendroica tigrina May 30 Furnace Creek Ranch, Inyo Co., Calif.: 1 breeding plumage ♂ in cattails (!) around pond at SW corner of golf course - seen by 40 birders. - dark crown; chestnut, triangular cheek patch bordered all around by yellow; breast yellow with conspicuous black streaks extending to belly; large white wing patch; dark green back. - appeared to be in full breeding plumage. I was unable to see the rump to see whether or not it was yellowish and I did not note whether or not the back was streaked. - I only got to see the bird well for about 10 seconds before it disappeared across the golf course. The chestnut cheek patch bordered by yellow is unique to this species and there was never really any question as to the bird's identity. June 14 Pt. Reyes, Marin Co., Calif.: 1 ♂ singing vigorously at Mendoza Ranch - watched for 4-5 minutes total: chestnut triangular cheek patch bordered all around broadly by yellow; throat breast, and upper belly bright yellow; columns of black dots emanating from uppermost portion of breast down to belly - very conspicuous; lower belly + undertail coverts white; tail dark except for white outer rectrix; crown dark olive brown-green; back brighter olive green; large, conspicuous white wing patch; did not see yellow rump or stripes on back. Song was a series of high-pitched "see" notes (? 6-9) on same pitch. This was the very first bird I saw today - I was still putting on my jacket when I first spotted the bird.

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Grace's Warbler Dendroica graciae May 21 Clark Mountain, San Bernardino Co. Calif.: As we were leaving the white fir path, I heard a strange warbler song and tracked it down to a singing male Grace's Warbler. Six of us got good views as it sang from the tops of pinyons for several minutes. The rest of the group had already moved several hundred yards downhill and by the time they raced back up hill, it had moved off several hundred yards. But luckily it then moved back downhill 200 yds below the original sighting, where it remained for 10-15 minutes and everybody got to see it extremely well. This bird would sing consistently from one or two trees for 5-10 minutes, then move long distances and then begin singing again, as if hunting for a mate. It was not on a fixed territory, as we last saw it 1/4 mile downhill from the original point on pinyon-covered hillside. This bird was among pinyons exclusively - not white firs. The song was a (10-12) rapid series of "sweet" notes, rising in pitch at the end. Description: size and shape of nearby Black-throated Gray Warbler; upperparts all blue-gray with dark streaks on back; two prominent white wingbars; conspicuous yellow eyebrow extending behind eye; cheeks, lores blue-gray; throat and breast bright yellow; belly white with conspicuous dark streaks on lower sides and flanks; tail without conspicuous marks - (paler gray) some paleness along outer rectrices. or tail spots They all yellow eyebrow, and absence of white neck patch eliminates Yellow-throated Warbler. The yellow eyebrow and yellow breast eliminates Audubon's Warbler.

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Chestnut-sided Warbler Pendroica pensylvanica June 14 Point Reyes, Marin Co. Calif.: 1♂ in poison-hemlock gully just SW of Nunes. Watched from about 15ft. for 2 minutes—brilliant green-yellow crown; nape and back green, striped black; eyeline and projection below eye black, contiguous with conspicuous, solid, broad chestnut stream along sides; rest of underparts immaculate white; two white wingbars. Sept. 12 Monterey area, Monterey Co., Calif.: 1 im. & in cypress around putting green at Crespi Pond. Immaculate white underparts, yellow-green crown, gray face with white eye-ring, green back, large yellowish-white wingbars. Found and identified by Linda. Oct. 5 Point Reyes: 1 im.♀ at Mendoza Ranch — seen in great light at 20 ft—bright green-yellow crown, bright green back and tail, 2 large yellow wingbars, white eye-ring standing out against a gray face) uniform white underparts from throat to undertail coverts. The contrast between the gray of the face and the brilliant green-yellow crown is extremely distinctive.

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Bay-breasted Warbler Dendroica castanea May 28 Furnace Creek Ranch, Inyo Co., Calif.: 1 breeding plumage male spotted by Hank Brodkin at the edge of the pond surrounded by mesquite just off the north end of the golf course. - chestnut cap; dark brown face; chestnut throat and upper breast extending along sides to flanks; whitish lower breast and belly; buffy white sides of neck; dark back (did not see the streaks); 2 white wingbars. The breeding plumage male is such a distinctively patterned bird that it is ridiculous to even discuss similar species. We watched the bird from as close as 30 ft. for about 30 seconds before it vanished off across the golf course. June 14 Pt. Reyes, Marin Co., Calif.: 2♂♂ - one at Fish Docks and one in poison-hemlock gully just SW of Nunes Ranch. The Fish Docks bird was a perfect-plumaged bird, singing vigorously in the cypress - fantastic views at 20 ft in lower branches of the cypress. This was almost certainly one of the two Bay-breasteds Joe Morlan found here yesterday. The bird near Nunes was also a singing ♂ but its bay was not as solid or distinct - did not extended as far down the sides and showed some signs of molt on the crown and throat. The Nunes bird was seen from as close as 6ft. and was studied for at least 10 minutes total.

1/31 27 Remsen [illegible] [illegible] Bad-Presented Multiple I had 38 minutes to read, I read the book "The Catcher in the Rye". I found that it was a very interesting book and I thought that the author did a good job. The main character is Holden Caulfield. He is a teenager who has just graduated from high school. He is very cynical about people and he thinks that most people are phony. He goes to New York City for Christmas break because he wants to get away from his family. Holden meets various people in the city, including an old man named Mr. Antolini, who gives him advice about life. He also spends time with Sally Hayes, a girl he likes, but they don't end up together because Holden doesn't want to be serious. He ends up at a bar where he meets several other people, including a prostitute named Sunny. He pays her $50 for sex, but she is not very good and he feels disappointed. In the end, Holden decides to go home and try to fix his problems with his family. He realizes that he needs to stop being so cynical and start living his life.

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Prairie Warbler Dendroica discolor Sept.3 Monterey area, Monterey Co., Calif.: 1 - Washington Park, Pacific Grove where it was found by others yesterday. We located the bird with a mixed species feeding flock of warblers, vireos, and parids. The Prairie foraged slowly and deliberately in live oak foliage within 20' of the ground. The call note was a soft 'seep' like Townsend's. Upperparts were a dull greenish; wings with 2 obscure pale wingbars; underparts (not entire throat) mostly yellow but chin and undertail coverts white; eyebrow and sub-ocular line yellow; line between throat and subocular yellow grey-black; dark streaks and spots along sides and flanks; wagged tail; smaller (slightly) than Townsend's Warbler. This bird looked intermediate between the illustrations (in Robbins et al Birds of North America) of imm ♀ and ♀ adult on p. 269: the throat wasn't as extensively white as the imm.♀ and the face and flank markings were more distinct, but not as distinct as shown for the ad. ♀. Sept.5 Point Reyes, Marin Co., Calif.: 1 imm.♀ at Drane's Beach in willows and shrubs and on hillsides between the cypresses and the pond where it had first been seen Sept.2. A small warbler (smaller than accompanying Orange-crowned) with white tail spots; wagging tail; obscure wingbars; greenish back and head tised slightly rusty on back; pale superciliary and subocular stripe; whitish-yellow throat; yellow underparts with dusky, broad streaks and flanks.

1982 2 July Don't Rock My World (song) I know I can do it, but I'm afraid to try. It's like trying to fly without wings. But maybe one day I will learn how to fly. My dad always said, "You'll never make it." But he was wrong. He didn't understand what I could do. I started playing guitar when I was 10 years old. My mom bought me my first guitar for my birthday. It was a cheap acoustic guitar, but it sounded great. I practiced every day after school. Sometimes I would play until midnight. My neighbors complained about the noise. But I didn't care. One day, I decided to enter a talent show. I was nervous at first. But when I walked onto the stage, everything changed. The audience cheered loudly. They loved my song. I felt so proud of myself. After the show, my dad came up to me. He said, "You did great." For the first time in my life, I knew I had made my dad proud.

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Kentucky Warbler Oporornis formosus May 27 East Mojave Desert, San Bernardino Co., Calif.: 1 ♀ watched for 2 minutes in dense undergrowth of Fort Piute, within 200 yards of the upper limit of the riparian growth. As I was walking up the stream bed, I flushed a warbler from the edge of the stream and I remarked to Steve that although it had a yellow belly, it was larger than a MacGillivray's (and smaller than a chat). I scanned the undergrowth upstream and there it was, sitting in the open at the edge of the undergrowth, preening itself (it must have been bathing) about a foot off the ground. I got Steve Cardiff onto the bird and we both crouched and watched it as it preened for 2 minutes about 25 feet away in good light. Description: a large, heavy warbler, more or less the size of a Northern Waterthrush; upperparts entirely greenish; wings grayish, without wingbars; forecrown darker than rest of crown but not solid black; conspicuous yellow eyebrow which curved downwards behind the eye to loop around and form almost a complete eyering; lores blackish and this darkness extended down as a point into the face; underparts were entirely bright yellow Some imm. ♂ Yellowthroats show a projection of darkish down into the cheeks but they lack the conspicuous yellow brow and looping eyering shown by this bird and they are not uniform yellow underneath.

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Hooded Warbler Wilsonia citring Oct. 15 Forestville, Sonoma Co., Calif: 1 ♂ in denser riparian thickets where it has been present for over one month. We spent an hour and 45 min. here before finally seeing the bird and then needed every minute until darkness to finally get good looks. The underparts were all bright yellow and the upperparts were greenish; the crown and nape were blackish as was a well-defined blackish chest connected to the crown by blackish "straps"; the throat was not black, indicating an imm. male, and the black did not appear solid black; white edging in the outer tail feathers was noted. The call note was a high, sharp "chiiN", similar to Brown Towhee call note but softer. Oct. 22 East Mojave Desert, San Bernardino Co., Calif: 1 ♂ in Chilopsis wash ≈ ¼ mi. E of riparian at Fort Piute. Collected by S. Cardiff - specimen to San Bernardino Co. Museum The high, sharp "chiiN" note was heard. Imm. ♂ - greenish edgings on black crown feathers.

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Painted Redstart Myioborus pictus June 20 East Mojave Desert, San Bernardino Co. Calif.: 1 pair seen in the white fir stand in the New York Mtns. One bird was singing and displaying at the other bird - they seemed to be a pair. Conspicuous white outer 3-4 tail feathers and huge white shoulder patch; upperparts and head all black; breast bright red; belly white. Stayed in the white firs about 5 minutes and then were not seen again the following 2 hours of our stay there. They did not seem attached to the white fir stand but the steep, cool, rocky canyons here with lots of ledges and crevices seemed to be good breeding habitat. The song was typical-warblerlike in quality - a series of high pitched, sweet notes: "sew-sew-sew-sew seedle-seedle - see" One bird also gave a "chew" note resembling pine siskin flight call.

Sketch traced from drawing made during observation: culmen straight, upper mandible dark base of lower mandible pale, silvery, slightly reflective. underparts uniform orange with slight brownish cast. legs grayish slightly pale in center of belly tail olive green, outer tail feathers edged paler yellow-green back olive green with columns of blackish marks forming streaks [not as conspicuous as pictured here] white wing bars primaries strongly edged with white [much more conspicuous than shown here] (~4 times) Size and shape of Bullock's Oriole. It gave a chatter like Bullock's Oriole but more rapid and thinner, higher pitched; also gave an inquisitive whistle once. Studied for 10-20 minutes through telescope as it foraged on single dates in the date palm orchard on two separate occasions. (It picked at single dates for up to 5 minutes at a time.) We were as close as 40 ft. and had good light.

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Common Grackle Quiscalus quiscula May 30 Deep Springs, Inyo Co., Calif.: 1 feeding in cattle pasture at south end of agricultural area where it had been found earlier in the day by Mike Parmeter, Bruce Broadbush et al. The head was a glowing, iridescent deep blue and contrasted with the iridescent bronzy-green back and wings; it was distinctly larger than nearby Brewer's Blackbirds but not nearly as large as Great-tailed Grackle; the tail was distinctively shaped - ridged or arched giving distinctive flight silhouette; iris pale; bill large and long; tail and belly blackish. May 31 Deep Springs: 1 (same bird, same spot) - deep "chuck" note given in flight. This bird was not a Great-tailed Grackle because ① much smaller body size - we had just seen Greataileds at Furnace Creek Ranch and I'm sure this bird was smaller than the ♀ Great-tailed, much less the male ② Great-tailed is iridescent but does not bright show the sharp contrast between a blue head and a bronzy-green back and wings; iridescence on Great-tailed is mainly blue-black. ③ this bird gave none of the creaking, rattling, and squeaking notes given by Great-tailed It was not a Brewer's Blackbird because ① it was much larger than a Brewer's Blackbird and direct comparison was made several times ② Brewer's Blackbird has a shorter bill relative to body size ③ Brewer's Blackbird doesnot show any strong contrast between head and back/wings.

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Pyrrhuloxia Pyrrhuloxia sinuata June 19 Chemehuevi Wash, San Bernardino Co. Calif. : 1 pair in palo verde-smalotree wash 19 mi. N. of Vidal Junction ~200 m. E of the highway where they had been discovered a couple of weeks ago by BLM personnel. The pair have remained in the vicinity within a relatively small area and have been reported singing. We watched the & for over a half-hour and she was not collecting nest material or food; no one else has seen any give-away indications of nesting. Perhaps they are waiting for summer rains which would come about this time of year in the Arizona portion of the range but probably will not materialize here on the periphery of the range - and maybe that's why they don't normally occur in Calif. There also is the possibility that they have already completed nesting efforts as is the case in other Colorado Desert birds - but why sticking so close to this spot? The male had a red crest, red loreal area, red chin, throat, and center of breast to upper-belly; red-tinged primaries, and red tail. The rest of the plumage was gray. The bill was bright yellow, and the culmen was very curved in contrast to the straight culmen and reddish bill of Red Cardinal. The underwing coverts were also conspicuously red, showing up well in flight. The female was tawny brown with red in the primaries and tail; chin slightly orange; bill yellow with curved culmen.

June 23 East Mojave Desert: 3 ♂♂ singing along Ft. Piute (2 seen together); also 1 ♀ seen. Males acted very territorially - perhaps nesting.

Kameny 2.V. 13.I 6th August Dear Princess, I am writing to you today because I have been thinking about the events of the last few days. The situation here is very tense and it seems that war is imminent. My father, Count Rantzau, has been away for some time now. He left us all in a state of uncertainty. My mother tried to keep things together but she is also feeling quite worried about what might happen next. We have received word from our allies that they are preparing for conflict as well. It seems everyone is bracing themselves for whatever comes next. Please let me know how you are doing. We miss you dearly here and would love to hear from you soon. Yours truly, Prince William

Remsen, J.V. 1977 White-collared Seed eater Sporophila torqueola 19 Sept. Tijuan River Valley, San Diego Co., California: 1 ad. ♂ studied for 2 minutes in row of brush and low trees along 19th St. Size of goldfinch, but with much (dark) more massive, conical bill. Crown + face - black. Underparts - uniform cinnamon from throat to undertail coverts, crossed by conspicuous black chest band. Conspicuous white area in shoulder - neck area. Upperparts - brownish-black. Small white patch at base of primaries. Rump + lower body - cinnamon (same as breast) sharply demarcated. Tail - dark, rounded. Assumed to be an escape, but Sporophila are notorious wanderers, and probably hard to keep in cages.

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Le Contels Sparrow Passerherbulus caudacutus May 22 Furnace Creek Ranch, Inyo Co., Calif : I located in cattail-grass lined ditch just e. of small pond in NW corner of the golf course where it had been found yesterday afternoon by Guy McCasKie . We got several fantastic views , despite strong ( 25+ mph ) winds , by repeatedly flushing the bird until it landed in the open . It would flush and drop suddenly into 5-6" tall grass bordering the cattails and would stick its head up above the grass to keep an eye on us. Twice it did land on cattail stalks, giving us full views , Description : A very tiny sparrow - seemed smaller than Grasshopper - with a large, long head for its body size ; bill ( blue- gray ) also seemed large and rather long for the body size ; the eye was black and stood out boldly on the face ; the crown had a pale median stripe bordered by 2 broad , dark brown stripes ; the median stripe seemed to be of three colors : proximal 1/3 buffy, middle 1/3 whitish ; distal 1/3 grayish ; a broad eyebrow was striking orange buff ; there was a black postocular streak which just behind the eye was almost in visible but distally broadened into a conspicuous , broad line , curving slightly downwards ; there was a gray , triangular cheek patch bordered on all sides by bright orange-buff ; no malar streak was seen ; the throat was paler buff than the head color ; the throat and breast were bright orange-buff, perhaps not as orange as eyebrow ; belly becoming whitish ; flanks and sides buffy with thin, sharp dark streaks continuing to near undertail coverts (reminiscent of Lincoln's Sparrow ) ; back pale-gray brown with blackish feather edgings and two conspicuous white streaks converging posteriorly ; these streaks were composed of white , chevron-shaped marks ; tail short, thin g brown . I did not note pinkish-brown streaks on nape although Steve Cardiff did see this. The bird was silent the whole time May 23 Furnace Creek Ranch : I ( same bird , same spot )

eye stood out large and black bill blue gray gray cheek patch breast and eyebrow orange-buff, deep on eyebrow and palest on chin underparts whitish forecrown buffy midcrown whitish hind crown grayish broad crown stripe dark brown postocular black back pale sandy brown broad rows on converging white chevron-shaped feather edging, wings rich brown tail short brown

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Clay-colored Sparrow Spizella pallida Sept. 5 Point Reyes, Marin Co., Calif: 1 in the valley to the West of the cypress at Nunes Ranch, but before the cattle pond, where it had been found yesterday. A and slimmer small sparrow, smaller than nearby Savannas, with a long tail - typical Spizella shape. The breast was a clear sandy-buff and the belly was whitish - no gray at all; the triangular cheek patch was strong and conspicuous; a gray wash formed a hind-collar which contrasting with the rest of the sandy-brown upperparts. The details of the crown were never seen clearly but the buffy chest and strong cheek patch eliminate Brewers and Chipping. Found 2 days ago by Binford and Parameters Oct. 9 Point Reyes: 2 - 1 in draw w. of Nunes and 1 in lupines LCB, VR around pond at the "T" junction a few hundred yds. from Nunes Ranch. Both birds had strong triangular cheek patches, no line from eye to bill, pale streak through crown, gray collar contrasting with sandy-brown back, and underparts too pale for Chipping. Flight note softer than the metallic flight note of Chipping

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Harris' Sparrow Zonotrichia querula Apr. 23 Santa Barbara area, Santa Barbara Co., Calif.: 1 h.o.n'y near Goleta at a feeder where it had wintered. The bird sang back and forth with me, responding to my imitations, but would never come out of the dense undergrowth - we never did see the bird. Most of the song phrases given were 3 note, monotone, high-pitched whistles similar in quality to the song of White-throated Sparrow. As an introduction to another richer song, it gave perfect imitations of House Sparrow calls. Nov. 23 Furnace Creek Ranch, Inyo Co., Calif.: 2

Remsen, J.V. 1977 Snow Bunting Ectophenax nivalis Nov.20 Monticello Dam, Yolo Co., Calif.: I seen along dirt path at the base of the dam (where found yesterday by Rich Stallcup) - studied for 20+ minutes from 6-30 ft in great light. An extremely tane bird centre of crown a duller brown that the rest of the crown Iris black Bill yellow with blackish tip on upper -> mandible buffy breast band. thighs well-feathered fluffy, white. arrow grayish postocular line crown, cheek patch, nape bright buffy-amber. (Some whitish streaks in crown) black streaks on back (not as conspicuous as drawn) on gray background, changing to buffy brown towards lower back. black primaries with some white edgings splashes of buffy along sides and flanks very long hallux black tarsis Although we arrived at 0745, the bird did not appear until 0900 when suddenly Mrs. Langham spotted it on a rock near the area which had been searched the most intensively of any - near where it had been seen yesterday. It flew into the middle of the group of birds and began feeding at their feet. The overall size was nearly that of a Brown Touhee. The contrast between the large head and the small bill gave the bird a very distinctive gestalt.
